Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

.... now when the MOT man said it's time you bought some new boots as you're almost down to the wear-bars ..... I don't think that's what he meant ....

Nice to see all that turned up including those who turned up for the ride out.
Friday was a bit shitty weather wise I got drenched setting up.
Saturday and sunday was very kind. A really nice warm weekend.
Finally I would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody who turned up and made a very enjoyable weekend it was brilliant.
And to those who help pack the things away Squid, martdude, nickynoto and nickynoto junior Thankyou. :smt023

Was really good to see you all in the flesh, although I had met some before!
Thanks Jay for all your hard work, much appreciated.
Hope the run out was OK, it's always dodgy planning a run out with all that police activity, especially sad to see a camera van on the Caistor road.
Here are a few pictures from Willingham -

Isn't it nice when someone finds a new hat to replace an old one, which was sadly "lost".

I have many hats, but none so beloved as the one that was sadly lost. :smt010

Cheers Jay for doing the organising and Howard for sorting the ride out. I had a great time as usual.

Huge thanks to Blinkey for a great weekend. Sorry I couldn't stay for the Saturday night. Fantastic company, great campsite and very friendly pub with good beer and food and friendly locals. Hope this becomes an annual meet.

Thanks again Jay - great work :smt006

+1 - Top work, Jay and greatly appreciated. What impressed me most was the way you organised good weather. :smt003

Seriously - excellent craic - great to meet and chat with people in the flesh that I'd only known through pixels on a screen before. And I do understand the amount of behind the scenes work that's involved to organise something like this. It's definitely not trivial...
